polinski 15 Oct 2010 #151Little Polish Deli13325 Tamiami TrlNorth Port, FL 34287(941) 423-2800We'd always hit a place on the north end of Tamiami Trail in North Port. They we on the west side of the road. It looks like they may have moved, but the food was excellent. Bigos with real wedding kielbasa, pierogies as good as grandmas and homemade Polskie ogorki. Nothing fancy, but a wonderful couple that made the place a required stop.Paul Olinski

Cossack 26 Dec 2010 #157Hello,I see there is a lot of interest in meeting Polish people in Florida. Both of my parents were from Poland originally. My father passed away recently, but he loved to meet his fellow countrymen/women wherever he went. Therefore in his memory, I compiled this list of Polish Clubs and Churches throughout Florida.I'm an old bachelor that's been living throughout Florida for 14 years, and know my way around. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Enjoy the list and good luck!Fred(cossack1957@yahoo)N.E.

poleforpole40 29 Dec 2010 #158Fred, the information you provided above to others is a wonderful tribute to your dad!!I too live in Florida now from Wallington, NJ (Probably the heaviest concentration of Poles inNorthEast USA).After living in Wallington and now in Sarasota, Fl there is kind of a night and day differencebetween the Poles here and there.In Wallington it appears most Poles are young newcomers from Poland settling down in Wallingtonfor better job prospects.The Poles in Sarasota are mainly retired as are a lot of Sarasotans. There are a couple of Polish Delishere but unmatched in price, quality and taste with the ones in Wallington, particularly Piast<--Great hot Lunches and Dinners.Missing most of the Northeast Polonia here in Sarasota. I think these retired Floridian Poles oughtto think more about this younger generation of Poles and help them get established here in Floridaas well (jobs language, etc), just as other Europeans do.I've heard some NE Poles say what a crummy life they have in the Northeast working in factories,cleaning, working two jobs, etc. For them a short vacation in Sarasota is in order so they can lookforward to possibly relocating to Southwest Florida where the best beaches and warmest waters arefound in the USA. We need another Wallington in Sarasota ASAP!! Sarasota could become a strongfoothold for a younger generation of Polonia strategically located between Clearwater, Fl's Poloniaand Venice, Fl's Polonia. Any takers? Let's make this happen by getting involved!! :) My Idea is togather Polish sponsers (like foster parents) in Florida to take in small Polish families betweenChristmas and New Year's and give them a place to stay for the week and show them where ithePolish stores, Churches, Clubs, etc. are (make them feel more at home).The Russians are enjoying life in Beverly Hills, CA so Sarasota can sort of be considered the Poorman's Beverly Hills for Blue collar Poles......PoleforPole40
homiczek 2 Jan 2011 #159One question... everyody seems to claim their Polish and missing to speak our language. So why do you guys talk in English here?Anyway I'm from Orlando and since my friends moved back to Poland I don't have anybody to hang out. Having polish church is nice but I'm not realy a church person and it doesn't seem like people from the church would do anythink beside seeing each other after mass in front of the church.Anyway if anybody know any fun spots when you can meet Polaks let me know.Anna Nowialisyou can find me on a facebook
polonian 12 Jan 2011 #160There is a Mass celebrated in Polish at St Joseph Church on Alefaya Tr . in orlando just south of E.Colonial Dr

ursulaclarke 15 Feb 2011 #163I am of Polish origin and i live in Citrus County. Homosassa to be exact. However although Polish was the first language I learnt before I went to school in England. I am a brit by birth. My parents were Polish. Only one is living now. He is 85 years old. I am 57. However, my written Polish is non existant. My language is okay and most Polish people that come from Poland (my cousins and others) are impressed by it because they know I do not have anybody to talk to in Polish. Is anybody Polish interested in becoming friends?My name is Ursula. In Polish it is Urszula. My husband is a brit. My e mail is ursulaclarke377@gmail

Fisherman49 15 Apr 2011 #170I am from polish decent and all my polish side of the family is from Chicago. I have some great polish recipes to share. I live in Pasco county and understand that there is a couple of polish deli"s here. Highway 19 is one but heard it wasnt very good, I also miss the polish foods my mom used to cook. I also have some websites I can share if you would like to order polish food online.

Des Essientes 7 | 1,290 15 Apr 2011 #172Fisherman49 nevermind Delphiandomine he is the resident troll and his life under the bridge has embittered him.
FlaglessPole 4 | 662 15 Apr 2011 #173I am from polish decent and all my polish side of the family is from Chicago.So you're American, then?I wasn't aware that Chicago is in Poland.Yes fishermen you are about to be reeducated by Delphi, the gist of his sermon is that you are not what you think you are.Though it puzzles me why so many people get wound up by it. If I were to follow their suit I should be gravely offended as my dad is PolAm but he and his family don’t quite fit into Delph’s stereotype so I just shrug it off slightly amused. I *know* whilst he entertains with hit and miss speculations.
monvayne 5 May 2011 #174There are many polish people in miami/south beach area but are usually from NY and they don't stay long.
